Command Access ETMM4540 626 CH-CB75 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can one Command Access ETM hinge both power an electrified lockset and monitor door position?
That is exactly what the ETM-CB75 does. It carries low voltage from the hinge jamb across to the lockset while a concealed magnetic or mechanical monitor switch reports whether the door is open or closed. One hinge, both jobs, so you are not adding a separate door contact in the frame. If you only need the position signal and no power transfer, order the M (Monitor Only) wire option.
2) How much current can the Command Access ETM-CB75 electrified hinge carry?
It is rated 50 to 100 mA at 30VDC, with a maximum in-rush of 0.5 A. That covers typical electrified levers, mortise locks and electric strikes on low current draw, but check the draw of your lock before you commit. The same rating applies whether you order the normally closed or normally open switch configuration.
3) Will the Command Access ETM hinge plug straight into an Assa Abloy Electronyx or Allegion CON lockset?
Optional Molex connectors are offered for direct integration with Assa Electronyx and Allegion CON systems, so you can specify the hinge with the matching connector instead of splicing at the frame. If you are not on either of those platforms, order it without the connector option and terminate in the junction box as usual.
4) What hinge sizes does the Command Access ETM-CB75 come in?
Four sizes: 4.5 x 4, 4.5 x 4.5, 4.5 x 5 and 5 x 5 inches. The 4.5 x 4.5 is the standard commercial full mortise size on a 1-3/4 inch door, so that is usually the direct swap. Go to 4.5 x 5 or 5 x 5 when the door is thicker or has heavy applied trim and you need more leaf width to clear.
5) What are my alternatives to the Command Access ETM if I do not need door position monitoring?
If all you need is power across the opening, a plain electrified hinge does the job without the switch. The BEST CECB179-12C is a steel full mortise concealed bearing electrified hinge with a 12-wire quick connect, medium duty. The Stanley Security CECB1900R54L is a 3 knuckle concealed bearing, concealed conductor architectural hinge in 4-1/2 by 4-1/2 square corner, left hand, 4-wire. Note the Stanley is handed, so you order it to the door swing; specify handing from the opening, not the hinge.
6) Can I use a standard ball bearing hinge like the Ives 3CB1HW in place of an energy transfer monitor hinge?
No. The Ives 3CB1HW is a steel heavy weight concealed bearing full mortise hinge with 3 knuckles, but it carries no conductors and no switch, so it will hang the door and nothing else. If the lockset needs power or the panel needs a door position signal, you need the ETM or another electrified hinge. Non-electrified hinges like the 3CB1HW, the Hager BB1168 NRP, or the Orca 3535 ball bearing are what you put in the remaining hinge positions on the same door.
7) What is the closest equivalent to the Command Access ETM-CB75 if I need a concealed-conductor electrified hinge from another manufacturer?
The Stanley Security CECB1900R is the nearest peer: a three knuckle concealed bearing concealed conductor architectural hinge in steel full mortise, 4-1/2 by 4-1/2 square corner, 4-wire, and it is offered left-handed. The Command Access ETM-CB75 is also a 3 knuckle heavy duty steel base electrified hinge and it carries 4W (4/26ga) among its wire options, plus sizes from 4.5 by 4 up to 5 by 5. The functional difference is that the ETM-CB75 adds a concealed magnetic or mechanical monitor switch for door position signaling, which the Stanley concealed conductor hinge does not include.
8) I need more than eight conductors through the hinge - is there an alternative with a higher wire count?
Two routes. The Command Access ETM-CB75 itself goes to 10W (10/28ga) as its highest conductor option, alongside 8W (8/28ga), 6W (6/26ga) and the lower counts. If you need twelve, the BEST CECB179-12C is a steel full mortise concealed bearing electrified hinge with a 12-wire quick connect. Note the BEST CECB179-12C is a medium duty hinge, while the ETM-CB75 is heavy duty with a steel base, so confirm the door weight before swapping.
9) The opening does not need power transfer, just a heavy duty 3 knuckle concealed bearing hinge - what should I order instead?
The Ives 3CB1HW is a steel heavy weight concealed bearing full mortise hinge with 3 knuckles and a heavy duty rating, which matches the mechanical build of the Command Access ETM-CB75 without any electrical function. The ETM-CB75 is an electronic hinge carrying 50-100 mA at 30VDC plus a door position monitor switch, so if nothing on the door is electrified and no position signal is needed back to the panel, the 3CB1HW covers the opening. Ives also lists the 3CB1 in the same 3 knuckle concealed bearing configuration at a medium duty rating for lighter doors.
10) I only need door position monitoring, not power to the lock - does that change what I order?
It does not require a different manufacturer. The Command Access ETM-CB75 is offered in an M - Monitor Only wire configuration, which gives you the concealed magnetic or mechanical switch signaling door position in NC or NO without the conductor bundle for a lockset. Among comparable electrified hinges, the BEST CECB179-12C is built around a 12-wire quick connect for power transfer rather than monitoring, so it is not the substitute for a monitor-only requirement.
11) I need a monitored electrified hinge that looks like the rest of the hinges in the building. Will this stand out?
No. The ETM keeps the profile of a conventional 3 knuckle hinge, with no exposed wires, cables or switches on the face of the frame or door. That is the point of the design for retrofits into occupied space and for anywhere tampering is a concern. It comes in ten finishes, from 600 primed for painting through 605, 606, 609, 612, 613, 619, 625, 626 and 693 black, so it can be matched to the existing openings.
12) Should I specify the normally closed or normally open switch on an energy transfer monitor hinge?
Both are offered on the ETM, at the same 0.5 A maximum in-rush. The choice is dictated by the panel or monitoring input you are wiring into, not by the hinge: supervised access control inputs and most alarm panels expect the contact closed when the door is closed, which is the NC arrangement. Confirm what the head end expects before you order, since the switch configuration is built into the hinge.
13) Is the Command Access ETM-CB75 heavy enough for a high traffic commercial opening?
It is built on a heavy duty steel base with a 3 knuckle design and is rated commercial, not residential. That suits it to the openings it is normally specified for: healthcare, schools, government buildings, industrial facilities and multi-tenant residential entries where the door is under constant use and tied into access control.
14) Can a standard commercial ball bearing hinge be used in place of the ETM-CB75 on an access controlled door?
No. Hinges such as the Orca Hardware 3535 Series 4-1/2 by 4-1/2 square corner ball bearing commercial hinge, the Delaney CH401X 4 by 4 commercial ball bearing hinge, or the Hager BB1168 full mortise ball bearing heavy duty hinge are mechanical only and carry no conductors. The Command Access ETM-CB75 is an electronic hinge that transfers 50-100 mA at 30VDC from the jamb to the lockset while concealing the door position switch inside the hinge. On an electrified opening you would otherwise need a separate surface or concealed power transfer device and a separate door position switch alongside a mechanical hinge.
15) Is a prison or detention hinge a better choice than the ETM-CB75 for a high security opening?
They solve different problems. The BEST BB855 is a heavy-duty steel double weight concealed ball bearing prison hinge in the detention hardware line, and the Hager 990 STEEL is a full surface prison hinge 3 by 4 with a welded tip, both built for attack resistance and extreme door weight. The Command Access ETM-CB75 approaches security through concealment: it is heavy duty steel base with no exposed wires, cables or switches to tamper with, and it delivers both power transfer and door position signaling inside a conventional-looking hinge. If the opening needs an electrified lock and a monitored position contact, the prison hinges do not substitute.
16) Will a residential grade hinge work on the same door as the ETM-CB75 for the non-electrified leaves?
For the remaining leaves on a commercial opening, match the commercial hinges rather than residential ones. Options like the Emtek 91013 residential plain bearing 3-1/2 by 3-1/2 pair, the Delaney RH35xx 3-1/2 by 3-1/2 interior residential hinges, or the Deltana DSB35 3-1/2 by 3-1/2 residential square hinge are sized and built for residential interior doors. The Command Access ETM-CB75 is a commercial heavy duty hinge in 4.5 by 4, 4.5 by 4.5, 4.5 by 5 and 5 by 5 sizes, so the non-electrified leaves should be a commercial hinge of the same size, for example the Ives 3CB1HW heavy weight concealed bearing 3 knuckle hinge.
17) The opening is a double acting interior door - can the ETM-CB75 be used there?
No. The Command Access ETM-CB75 is a full mortise style 3 knuckle electrified hinge for single swing commercial openings. For a double acting interior door, the BEST DAP-3 is a heavy duty double acting pivot made for commercial interior doors. Because the DAP-3 is a pivot, it carries no conductors and no door position switch, so any electrified lock or position contact on that opening has to be handled by separate devices.
18) We need a non-removable pin on an outswing exterior door - does the ETM-CB75 have an NRP equivalent?
For openings where pin removal is the concern, the Hager BB1168-NRP is a non-removable pin full mortise ball bearing heavy duty hinge, and the Deltana CSB45N is a 4-1/2 by 4-1/2 square hinge pair with a non-removable pin. Neither carries conductors. The Command Access ETM-CB75 addresses tampering differently, with no exposed wires, cables or switches and the monitor switch concealed inside the hinge, and it is a heavy duty steel base hinge available in 4.5 by 4.5. A common approach is the ETM-CB75 on the conductor leaf with NRP mechanical hinges on the remaining leaves.
19) Does the Command Access ETM hinge come with installation instructions?
Yes. Comprehensive installation instructions ship with the hinge along with the energy transfer monitor cutsheet, which is what the integrator needs to get the switch configuration and wiring terminations right. Command Access also publishes a full product catalog covering the ETM 3 Series.
20) The door needs to self close - is there a hinge alternative to the ETM-CB75 that does that?
The Stanley Security 2060R spring hinge is a full mortise, square corner, 4-1/2 by 4-1/2 ferrous steel base heavy duty spring hinge, which provides closing force from the hinge itself. The Command Access ETM-CB75 has no closing mechanism; it is an electrified hinge providing 30VDC power transfer and concealed door position sensing, and it is available in the same 4.5 by 4.5 size. On many electrified openings both are used together with a closer, since the ETM-CB75 leaf is the one that carries the conductors.
21) How does the ETM-CB75 differ from a 5 knuckle standard weight commercial hinge like the McKinney MacPro?
The McKinney MP79 MacPro is a 5 knuckle full mortise hinge at a standard duty rating, and the MPB79 MacPro is likewise 5 knuckle standard weight; the Stanley FBB191 is a 5 knuckle full mortise standard weight hinge in 4.5 by 4.5. The Command Access ETM-CB75 is a 3 knuckle heavy duty hinge with a steel base, and it is electronic, transferring 50-100 mA at 30VDC with a 0.5 A maximum in-rush and signaling door position from a concealed switch. Knuckle count and duty rating aside, the deciding factor is whether the opening has an electrified lockset or a monitored contact to serve.
